Docker image with Alpine Linux: an executable file is definitely there but cannot be found while trying to execute

Here is the output of my terminal, while I am inside the shell of a Docker container with an Alpine image:

bash-5.0# ls
makeThumb
bash-5.0# ./makeThumb 
bash: ./makeThumb: No such file or directory
bash-5.0# 
As you can see, I have an executable file called makeThumb, and it is definitely there (see the output of ls). However, it is strange that when I'm trying to execute it with ./makeThumb it says No such file or directory.
How to solve this?
My Dockerfile:
FROM mhart/alpine-node:14 AS build
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install --production
COPY . .
FROM mhart/alpine-node:14
RUN apk update && apk add bash
COPY --from=build /app/ /app/
WORKDIR /app
RUN npm prune --production
EXPOSE 3000
CMD [ "node", "server.js" ]
Output of ldd makeThumb:

                Can you include your image's Dockerfile?  Are you correctly copying the PNG file you attached into the image; COPY j27cg.png .?  Where does the makeThumb binary come from, and how is this PNG file related to it?

                @DavidMaze Included the Dockerfile. This PNG file j27cg.png does not relate to the Docker image in any way. It is just a screenshot

                Could be that the makeThumb program is compiled to target another architecture than the one you are using. Can you post the result from file makeThumb and uname -a ?

                Can you post the output of ldd makeThumb ? It could be a missing dependency. EDIT: actually, don't post it, just make sure all the dependencies are met ;)

Alpine makes use of musl which is a minimalistic libc. My guess is that your binary is using non-standard functions that do not exist under Alpine.
I see two solutions to that :
Try to install glibc in your docker container
Probably the easiest solution : try to find a Docker image that uses it as default (a minimalistic Debian/Ubuntu Docker should do it)
                The 2nd solution helped, just the image size got a little larger, and that's not a big problem for me. Thanks
